Key details for your setup

Keep access under PIN control

Enter your PIN using the integrated keypad to unlock the drive. Hardware encryption uses 256-bit AES-XTS, with AES-ECB and AES-CBC also supported. This keeps encryption on the drive itself rather than relying solely on your computer.

FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification is pending. The drive also has a lock-out function, plus dust-resistant, tamper-resistant and wear-resistant protection features.

Store large files on a desktop drive

With 12 TB of capacity, the DT³ can hold extensive archives, backups and project files in one desktop drive. Its aluminium housing gives it a solid enclosure, while the on/off switch makes it easy to power down when not in use.

Connect through USB Type-C

The USB Type-C connector uses USB 3.2 Gen 1. The drive is plug and play, so compatible systems can recognise it without a separate setup process. Read and write speeds are rated at 290 MB/s and 284 MB/s respectively.
